I see it. :) Nice looking fish with good light on him. Good shot!
I can see it too. That's really an awesome looking fish, and the photo is great especially coming from a P&S camera. Mind sharing the setups?

Thanks for the comments:)
I had a combination of flourescent and metal halide light on top of the tank, and I shot it at iso200, f3.2, and somwhere around 1/100. Is there anything I can do to improve this shot through more post processing?
Maybe frame it a little looser.

Yeah....sometimes it is hard to get a looser crop with a fish this size.
But, if you can relinquish the effort for getting up close, it sometimes provides a better capture. Normally creating a more interesting composition triggers the pop you are looking for.:-D
Nice shot.:-D

Thanks for the advice guys, I'll keep trying to keep the p&s forum alive. (although I hope to have a DSLR in the near future)

Very nice work! I'm very impressed by the lighting and the depth of field. I don't think you need to loosen the crop very much, but if you try it I'd also recommend rotating the image clockwise a little (perhaps 3 degrees) to level the fish slightly.
